As a Java developer at Younicos, you will work on our Y.Q platform, which monitors, supervises and controls various electrical components like batteries, inverters , pv plants, wind farms, thermal generators, transformers, switchgears and auxiliary systems. The development of the Y.Q platform, which runs as 24/7 service on site, is based on OSGi technology and a distributed, messaging-based architecture. Specialized subsystems ensure the optimal control of the electrical components and implement technical interfaces for transmission line operators, energy providers and remote monitoring.

As part of an agile team (Scrum) you will work on all aspects of the software development. Strongly modularized system architecture, documentation of the system specifications, test driven Java implementation, fully automated integration testing and building the final product are your day-to-day tasks. Depending on your skills and interests you might work on the core architecture and design of the Y.Q platform, the interface abstraction for the integration of new components, the development of algorithms, the design and development of an API for external systems to give you some ideas.

All developments are performed in close collaboration with our technical engineers to understand and implement the technical requirements of the electrical equipment. With your team, you will develop the best technical solutions while having the freedom and the responsibility to bring your innovative ideas to life.
